NOTE: We already have one project under contract with Schacht, A
Nietzsche Dictionary, which is long overdue and may never arrive. I
want to sign this book up, first because Schacht actually seems
enthusiastic about it (unlike his reaction when I mention the
Dictionary project), and second because he's one of the very best
names in Nietzsche scholarship, with a proven record of being able
to do books of this nature. Schacht cannot start work on this
project immediately, which is why I'm also delighted to present the
proposal for Ansell-Pearson's Nietzsche project.

The blurb will be developed in conjunction with Schacht's plan
for the book. Suffice it to say that Nietzsche is one of the most
popular philosophers in the public eye, with interest cutting
across disciplines, methologies, and generations of scholars, with
Richard Schacht being one of the foremost Nietzsche scholars
writing today (but well known for his ability to explain
Nietzsche's dense and aphoristic writing in a clear and
well-balanced manner).




The book will follow the series brief, focusing on a clear and
compelling exposition of a figure's thinking, historical context,
and their relevance to human experience today.
